Chapter 355 Reinforcements from both sides (second update)
After Tan Zong, Xue Wanche, Xue Wanjun, and Wu Gunai defeated Wang Xingmin's army with a joint attack, they did not continue to chase and kill the Tang army. Instead, they obeyed Li Chongjiu's flag order to gather troops and horses to regroup and attack Yin Kaishan's troops.

Yin Kaishan's Tang army reacted extremely quickly, and it took only a moment from attack to defense, and they immediately set up their positions.

Xue Wanche led Qingqi to attack, but when he rushed halfway, he saw that Tang Jun had stabilized his position, which was beyond his expectation.

After the Tang army fell into battle, the soldiers untied their quiver from their jackets, held the oblique longbow in their hands, and aimed the upper arrow.

The soldiers of the Tang army who were born in Guanzhong were all good at shooting. When the army was recruited, they were required to prepare their own weapons. Therefore, every soldier of the Tang army had a bow, thirty arrowheads, and a large horizontal knife.As for the rifles, mo knives, and armors, they were issued to them by the imperial court, and the government soldiers did not need to prepare their own.

Therefore, in the Tang army, everyone has a bow and a sword.

As for Yin Kaishan's team, when he entered Guanzhong, he incorporated the rebel army into an army, and Li Sanniang and Liu Hongji usually brought out a team alone, and joined Li Yuan to teach Chang'an.After the war, this army was eliminated from the weak and the strong remained, and they were also incorporated into the government army.

Yin Kaishan made great achievements based on this, and was awarded by Li Yuan as Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Duke Chen.

Although most of Yin Kaishan's soldiers were from refugees, Guanzhong's disciples were tough. In addition, they were set up to imitate the government army, and Yin Kaishan was good at training soldiers, so they were also good at it.

Seeing Xue Wanche's light cavalry rushing forward, all the infantry of the Tang army on this side raised their bows and arrows, and the cavalry in front of them came into range, and they immediately released their arrows.

This is the Tang Army's arrow array, which is famous all over the world in later generations. Ten thousand arrows are fired at once, and the arrows hit like a sieve.Xue Wanche was unexpected. When the cavalry on standby retreated, dozens of cavalry in front had been shot into hedgehogs by random arrows.

"Damn it!" Xue Wanche suffered a great loss, so he could only rein in his horse and retreat to regroup his army.

At this time, Guo Ziwu, the governor of Luzhou, led [-] county soldiers to arrive, and Li Chongjiu immediately sent an order through the Chinese army with a flag to let Tan Zong, Xue Wanche lead the infantry, and Wan Shengjun to intercept the county soldiers.

Ugunai's 5000-horse cavalry and Xue Wanjun's sudden cavalry regrouped and attacked the flank of Yin Kaishan's [-] troops.

With the brave and skilled Mohe iron cavalry, and the addition of the cavalry regiment to restrain Wang Mahan, the pressure on Wang Mahan's front was greatly reduced.

Originally, he was supported by Yin Kaishan's oppression, and barely kept the front line from being overwhelmed by the river, but at this moment, he had enough energy to switch from defense to offense. Cooperating with Wu Gunai, Xue Wanjun attacked Yin Kaishan's men twice.

Yin Kaishan suddenly fell into the situation where Li Chongjiu and three other generals were attacking.

The battle was very fierce, the Youzhou army attacked more than ten waves, and Yin Kaishan also led the army to fight to the death.

The soldiers on both sides cut their blades with nicks, their spears broke, and their quiveres were shot empty. They still couldn't stand each other.

For the Youzhou Army, when has it experienced such a bloody battle.

Guo Ziwu and Li Yuanji, who also came to rescue Yin Kaishan, attacked Tanzong, and Xue Wanche's army fought fiercely.Li Chongjiu even had to send Ertuo's two thousand riders for reinforcements.

The long wind howled, the wailing of dying soldiers, and the beating of drums over and over again, but the battle on the entire battlefield fell into a stalemate.

But even though the battle situation was like this for the time being, Yin Kaishan and Guo Ziwu had already exerted their full strength, but Li Chongjiu's troops continued to cross the river from the ferry.

With Yin Kaishan and their Luzhou's military strength, the defense is still insufficient, not to mention that now the whole army is in the field, fighting against Li Chongjiu, and then the initial disadvantage is reversed, and new troops continue to join. Now Li Chongjiu is getting closer to victory every moment of the battle.

Now on the battlefield, the strong wind has stopped, but the lead cloud in the sky is getting thicker and thicker. Since the battle after lunch, the sky is now dark. If the battle continues, it will be dragged into a night battle, or the sky will change drastically. lower.

Li Chongjiu has gained an advantage, so of course he must gain momentum and turn his advantage into victory. Otherwise, Li Sanniang's [-] troops are rushing non-stop. If he can't defeat Yin Kaishan and the others before the reinforcements arrive, his entire army will be destroyed. The fate of being wiped out by the Lushui River.

On the crossing bridge, people and horses were also crossing the river quickly. The soldiers who crossed the river did not need to stop at all, and immediately formed a whole team. Now there are three thousand new troops under Er Tuo's command.
"Report to Lord Shanggu that five miles away, we found the forward of the Tang Army's reinforcements from Hengshan County."

"how many people?"

"The Tang army erected banners all over the place, but I don't know how many people there are."

Li Chongjiu's army crossed the river one after another, but the Tang army's reinforcements arrived one step faster, and what came was Li Sanniang's [-] army, known as the Guanzhong Women's Army.

At this time Li Chongjiu suddenly stood up, drew his sword and shouted: "All generals obey the order, the whole army will attack me!"

The faces of all the generals showed determination at the same time, knowing that the victory or defeat is just a matter of one action, they all clasped their fists together and said: "Promise."

After hearing this, the sergeants on the side of the Chinese army stepped forward together and beat the skinned drum loudly.

The gates of the Chinese army were all open, and heavy-armoured cavalry stood tall, with unsheathed long knives resting on their shoulders, and came out of the gates row by row.

Li Chongjiu himself stepped on the horse, wearing a bright armor, and the two bows for picking the stars and the moon were hung on the saddle, and nearly a hundred of his own soldiers were selected from the Han Chinese who were brave and loyal.

Li Chongjiu's banner also moved behind him, and Shuai Qi moved forward.

The head coach went into battle in person, and the morale of the Youzhou army was immediately high, and the three armies all shouted for victory.

Li Chongjiu personally led Qingqi to attack, while Shi Dexi's [-] cavalry led by Etuo also advanced from both wings.

All of a sudden, there was a sound of horses advancing in the Chinese army.

As Li Chongjiu personally led three thousand horses into the general attack, the Yin Kaishan army fought hard for half a day, and at this time it was almost to the point of running out of arrows and food.

After Tang Jun saw it, there was a look of despair in his eyes.Many soldiers of the Tang army fought with their shirts stained with blood. After seeing this scene, they no longer had the strength to resist and fell to the ground directly.

Er Tuo led the horsemen to charge in, and where the scimitar fell, Tang Jun was knocked down like straw.

Li Chongjiu saw that the surrounding troops rushed in like a broken bamboo, and the Tang army ran away with their heads in their arms. Wu Gunai, Wang Mahan, and Xue Wanjun attacked again, and the Tang army's line was immediately torn apart.

The general situation has been decided, he can't help but nod, it seems that he doesn't need to kill the enemy by himself.

Just as he was thinking about this, he suddenly saw a group of cavalry from the Tang army rushing out from the flank.The cavalry was wearing iron armor and holding a lance. They were very brave. Several cavalry under Eto's command stepped forward to intercept, but were all scattered and retreated by the cavalry.

"Shanggu Gong, this cavalry is heading straight for our big flag." Xue Wanshu said hastily.

Li Chongjiu said: "Understood."

His eyesight was very good, and among the cavalry of the opponent, he saw a general wearing a silver-white light armor.

Back then when he was in Qiqian Village, he shot this man with a three-stone bow. At that time, the man was dressed in white like snow and regarded the bandits in Qiqian Village as ants. Later, because of this man, he had to leave his hometown and flee for thousands of miles. .

Thinking of this, Li Chongjiu couldn't help but think of Yin Kaishan, Li Sanniang, Wang Mahan, and Su Su that he met when he was in Qiqianzhai. After so many years, some of these people have become his subordinates and friends, while others have become enemies. .

The cavalry of the Tang army clashed so quickly that even the side soldiers could see their intention, which was to directly kill the Chinese army and capture Li Chongjiu's commander-in-chief.How could the forehead support the opponent to get close to Li Chongjiu, so he immediately split up several groups of riders, each intercepting and chasing each other on the side.

Fanjun cavalry used whistles to pass messages to each other among the chaotic army. This was a skill developed during hunting and nomadic.Several people and horses wandered around like lanterns, completely restricting Yin Kaishan's elite cavalry.

This road of cavalry was trapped among the rebellious army, and the Fan cavalry hated them for killing more of their clansmen before, and now they will not let them go.

Li Chongjiu knew that Yin Kaishan intended to attack the Chinese army directly and wanted to assassinate him.But Yin Kaishan is not Luo Yi, and his subordinates are not Youzhou cavalry.

With Etuo trying his best to protect the banner of the Chinese army, Yin Kaishan made several dashes but failed. On the contrary, every time the men and horses under his command clashed, they killed less and less, and the soldiers and horses withered.

"Li Chongjiu, do you have the guts to fight my Yin Kaishan?"

The opponent yelled loudly on the horse, and the shouting sound spread far away. At this time, the Fanjun cavalry shot the opponent back with a rain of arrows.

"Li Chongjiu, you belong to a man, just fight me, otherwise you will be a coward, do you dare?"

At this moment, Yin Kaishan's shirt was blood-stained, and he rode his horse for a circle, and Er Tuo was furious and personally led the army to intercept.After Yin Kaishan stopped for a while, seeing that there was no movement from Li Chongjiu, he could only urge his horse to flee.

"Li Chongjiu, you are a coward!"

Yin Kaishan came again, but was persecuted. Now he pointed his sword horizontally and stared angrily, only a dozen or so lonely riders remained beside him.

Li Chongjiu kept yelling and scolding at the other party, but he stood under the banner, not moving a step.

"Khan, Ertuo asked if he wanted to capture this person alive?" asked the general beside him.

Li Chongjiu waved his hand and said, "No need, quick battle."

The last time Li Chongjiu saw Yin Kaishan, he was only surrounded by hundreds of Xi cavalrymen in the cavalry room. Was provoked high above the spear.

But at this moment, Li Chongjiu saw a cavalry line slowly overflowing on the opposite hill.

A large banner was hoisted out, with six characters of "Princess Li of Tang Pingyang" written on it.

"Tang army reinforcements have arrived!" Li Chongjiu and all the generals were shocked.

All the cavalrymen held sabers and silently watched the battle at the bottom of the mountain, and then the sound of arrows was fired.

The cavalry of the Tang army started slowly, and from the hillside, they began to attack the Youzhou army who were still fighting, and immediately thousands of troops and horses galloped down the mountain.

But at this time, there was a sudden roar in the air, heavy snow fell suddenly, and the sky became darker.

"It's already this weather, is the Tang army going to fight again?" All the generals of the Youzhou army said so.

But on the hill, Li Sanniang, the commander of the former army, still gave the order for the whole army to attack.

PS: I have only finished coding until now, and I am still a little tired in the second update. I will try my best to ask for a recommendation ticket and a monthly pass.
